Land-based tours

I am going to the Galápagos Islands in April and I’m looking to do a land-based tour for 7 days. Can someone recommend a good tour company I can use? I considered planning this on my own, but I’ve heard that a tour company would be a better option. Is that accurate? Thanks!

Welcome

Im using my phone niw so its not easy to do things.

But if you want...scroll down a few pages and scan for similar topics.

And really do this before you post. Chances are you didnt just come up with this question. Sorry i know how want to be unique and innovative.

There is also on the top right a "top questions"...on each boatd and then there is a SEARCH feature too.

There have been recent posts about such topics.

Good luck

My husband and I took a land based tour through Gate1. We enjoyed it very much and would even consider doing the same trip again.

Hello, just got back from Galapagos over Christmas and did land-based tours myself. Personally would prefer booking tours direct with agencies based on each island to get the best rates. If booking multiple activities with the same tour operator, do try to negotiate for discounts.

These were the companies i went with:

San Cristobal: Galapagos Xcursion (galapagosxcursion@gmail.com / Whatsapp: +593 96 813 1971)

Isabela: Isabela tour centre (isabeladivecenter@hotmail.com / Whatsapp: +593 96 017 6410)

Santa Cruz: Galapagos Blue Sky** (info@galapagosbluesky.com / Whatsapp: +593 99 611 2077)

**Galapagos blue sky charged a premium for North Seymour tours if you book in advance. In case you decide to book this tour, better to book it "last minute" for better rates.
